Manawatu Rant n Rave

[Owl]

Wax & grease remover, Prepsol or Isopropyl alcohol should remove any contaminants. As for putting that clear film on, Slydesigns would be the man to talk to. I'm just really good at getting that crap off!!!

What mishap ?

Hit a bike last night in my car.

not good.

1400 Suzuki GSX 05

Rider is fine, bike is bent, cars only minor damaged. PT's has the bike now. Thank god for leathers, helmets, PT's recovery ute, PT's for helping, bike loving cops, overly nice rider/victim and mostly INSURANCE!

Always been GETTING hit, never actually DOING the hitting until now. I know the feeling of sickness and guilt now.

This one Meanie!

Just leavin to pick up the blue beast, guess who's going to get wet!

Sad I know, looking this far ahead to the next ride but however, long range forecast is looking ok for next weekend, sunday is probably the better option at this point. Anyone have any ideas?
Here's a couple of thoughts:
1. Loop from Manawatu through the usual route to Masterton then over the Taka's etc back up the west coast.
2. Usual route through to Masterton then out Castle Point and back.

Can anyone tell i'm bored!

Question: What is the best solvent/cleaner to clean off the dirt and oils of paint without stripping off the wax?
I have some clear cover to put on the tail section of the bike and some wheel strips i'd like to get on as well.
